FOOD FOR THOUGHT

 The moment you get out of bed and wash your face and drink water (Pure Water Companies) will be counting on you and when you brush your teeth (Pepsodent, Close-up or Oral-B etc) will be earning on you.  When you Charge your phone (NEPA/PHCN) will be reading their meter and earning from you.  When you move from your house  to the office (taxi,Danfo, Okada or keke Marwa owners) will be counting on you.  If you are driving (Filling Station Owners) will be collecting their share. When you check your (WhatsApp, Facebook and other social media) telecommunication companies will be making money on you. So before you get out of the house you have already paid all these companies something. You have already spent money.  Let me not even talk about the rest of the day.  So if you are going to bed without making money. How are you going to foot all these bills??? Do something about your life today.  Start thinking about how to make money everyday.  Thin...

NEED TO RE-VISIT...

 The former Central Bank Governor, and Emir of Kano His Royal Highness Muhammadu Sanusi the second , surprised guests present at the Muson Centre for the launching of the book of Sir Olaniwun Ajayi.  Below is his unedited speech. Let me start by saying that I am Fulani (laughter). My grandfather was an Emir also fulani my uncle and guardian was also the immediate late Emir of Kano Alhaji Ado Bayero and therefore I represent all that has been talked about this afternoon. Sir Ajayi has written a book. And like all Nigerians of his generation, he has written in the language of his generation. My grandfather was a Northerner, I am a Nigerian. The problem with this country is that in 2009, we speak in the language of 1953. Sir Olaniwun can be forgiven for the way he spoke, but I cannot forgive people of my generation speaking in that language. Let us go into this issue because there are so many myths that are being bandied around. Before colonialism, there was nothing like Northern...

...TIME

 MUCH RESPECT  _It is a mistake to think time is going. Time is not going. Time is here until the world ends. It is you that is going. You don’t waste time. Time is infinite. You waste yourself. You are finite. It is you that grows old and die. Time doesn’t. So make better use of yourself before you expire. And one of the worst things to do with time is comparing yourself to others. A cow eats grass and gets fat but if dog eats grass, it will die. Never compare yourself with others. Run your race. What works for one person may be that which will kill you. Focus on the gifts and talents God gave you and don’t be envious of the blessings He gave others . Both Lion and Shark are professional hunters, BUT: A Lion cannot hunt in the Ocean and a Shark cannot hunt in the jungle That a Lion cannot hunt in the ocean doesn't make him useless and that a Shark cannot hunt in the jungle doesn't also make him useless both have their own territory where they can do well If a rose smells bett...

WHAT TO DO, IF ONE HAVE COVID-19

 Everyone is telling you how to NOT catch #coronavirus, but NO ONE is saying what to do if you get it. Thanks to this nurse in the UK for putting this guide together: Finally, some sensible advice.  From a GP Nurse in the UK.  To Avoid Covid-19 What I have seen a lot of are recommendations for how to try to avoid getting coronavirus in the first place , • good hand washing  • personal hygiene  • social distancing  -- but what I have NOT seen a lot of is advice for what happens if you actually get it, which many of us will.  So as your friendly neighborhood Nurse let me make some suggestions: If you get Covid-19 You basically just want to prepare as though you know you’re going to get a nasty respiratory bug, like bronchitis or pneumonia. You just have the foresight to know it might come your way! Things you should actually buy ahead of time: • Kleenex, • Paracetamol, • whatever your generic, mucus thinning cough medicine of choice is (check the label a...

...JUST BEGIN...

 Don't worry how it will end. Just begin. If you are building a house, just begin. If you are planning to buy land, just begin. If you want to continue with your education, just begin. If you want to pay dowry, just begin.  Nothing is more powerful than that advice. We just need to Have Faith and Begin. And I have revised this philosophy.  Whenever someone is doing something, I always encourage them to Have Faith and Just keep trying. When things get thick, I always say, keep walking. No matter how slow Just keep Moving If you Can't Walk then Crawl Just Keep Moving When things are intimidating, Ignore. Persist and keep trying. Don't give up on life just because your challenges appear to be insurmountable. Do not be defeated before you begin. Whatever looks like a mountain will soon become an anthill... but only if you begin. Not long ago, someone asked me, "Aliyu, are we going to manage to build the office we want?" My answer, "Let's just begin." I b...

THE NORTHERNER IS LESS NIGERIAN!

Everyone has the right to be 'sectional' Not the Northern Nigerian! Eastern Nigerians killed Ahmadu Bello Killed Tafawa Balewa Killed Zakari Maimalari Killed Yakubu Pam Killed Abogo Largema It was a revolution, nothing sectional!  Northern Nigerians killed Aguiyi-Ironsi It is sectional!  Jonathan sacks Sanusi Replaces him with Emefiele Jonathan replaces Dambazau with Ihejirika It is in the day's job, nothing sectional! Buhari renews Emefiele's tenure It is fine!  Buhari replaces Minimah with Buratai It is sectional!  Buhari replaces Jibrin with Ibas It is OK! Buhari fills where Attahiru was with Yahaya It is sectional! Jonathan refuses to honour rotation agreement  He has the Constitutional right! The North must 'handover in 2023'  It is in the spirit of rotation! Remove federal character principles in public appointments Employ based on competence But rotate the presidency.
